Microsoft Windows Mobile Phones

The BBC today reported that Microsoft have released their new Windows Mobile Operating system. How will this compare to rivals such as the iPhone OS and Blackberry OS?

Initial thoughts are that the iPhone operating system has a far better GUI. A screen of the Microsoft Mobile OS is shown below:

In comparison to the iPhone OS, Microsoft’s offering almost looks messy and a much more basic GUI. – However we are a bit biased in favour of the iPhone!

One feature reported is the inclusion of “in the cloud’ synchronisation. Going forward we expect the use of cloud technology to play a role on more and more computer devices.

However … how long until your Microsoft phone gets its first blue screen of death?
